In this AFP piece, I am quoted on #SouthSudan's president's unexpected dismissal of the head of national security, Akol Koor Kuc. I provided some insights into the decision's reasons, significance, and consequences.barrons.com/news/south-sud… via @BarronsOnline
President Salva Kiir has removed Akol Koor as the head of National Security and reappointed him as governor of Warrap State. Akech Tong, the former governor of Warrap and the Undersecretary of Veteran Affairs, has taken Koor's old job.
